Need information on Case knife

my case knife has the code CB220 on it. I know the first 2 means 2 blades and the 20 means a peanut. What does the CB mean.

What are the handles made of?

it stands for what kind of handles are on the knife, but hard to say without seeing the knife. can you post a pic of the knife?

They are pearlized like the mother of pearl but they don't have the 8 or 9 code to show this. They are white with pinkish tint with the light.

I wonder if maybe your knife hasn't been re-handled. I'm mostly into older Case knives, but I think the "CB" designation indicated Cocobolo.
